Henry Krinkle

Florida’s Henry Krinkle makes aural creations that are necessary for any future house and R&B feel-good session. His most recent remix of Cyril Hahn’s Perfect Form sparked us to share him. He takes the already amazing song and slows it down to a sultry slur, drops some heavy tropical bass on top, and loops the sensual chorus throughout. He turns it into a soundtrack for lush summer-nights that will be on repeat for a while.

Hot Natured | Buy Different Sides of the Sun

The quadruple threat that makes up Hot Natured just released their debut album Different Sides of the Sun. It’s an ambitious blend of modern pop and traditional house. That doesn’t come as a surprise when you consider the men behind the moniker. Each of them powerhouses in their own game; Jamie Jones, Lee Foss, Luca C, and Ali Love joined forces in 2010 with the intentions of bringing skilled electronic production to the poppier-dancehall masses.

Their 2012 track Benediction topped charts all over the UK and highlighted exactly what they had planned. A more recent single, Reverse Skydiving featured the vocals of the lovely Anabel Englund and set the style up for success in the States. Different Sides of the Sun is 15 tracks of simple and catchy soul with fiery passion. The standout tracks prove that this is a music style worth paying attention to.

Remix Artist Collective

Two years and some change after Hollywood, RAC has finally released another original: Let Go. It features two amazing vocalists [Kele Okereke and MNDR] and is a disco-pop hit ripe with RAC’s trademark happy melodies. Just as with Hollywood, there are lyrically wistful undertones that add a uniquely human touch.

The trio has also started out on a live tour. We’re hoping they bring out the extended family that they’ve remixed along their journey. That’d make for such an awesome show. Anyway, the single is out tomorrow. Stream it below.

Let Go

Washed Out | Buy Paracosm

Ernest Greene has used his second full-length release opportunity to shift to a more organic sound. He has incorporated antique instruments to re-envision the nebulous music we’ve grown to love à la Life of Leisure and Within and Without. While Paracosm has decidedly ambient and psychedelic leanings due to the lessened presence of electronic beat samples, it does maintain Greene’s dreamy and buoyant vocations. Check after the jump for songs and videos!
